Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

TypeScript Node.js Framework

This is a Node.js framework built with TypeScript that supports custom plugin registration and is easy to set up. It includes features such as routing, database management, authentication, logging, and error handling.

Features

  • Custom plugin registration
  • Router for each plugin
  • Built-in database management with PostgreSQL
  • Basic JWT-based authentication
  • Logging system using Winston
  • Error handling system
  • Configuration and environment instance management

Getting Started

  1. Install dependencies:
npm install
  1. Set up your environment variables in a .env file:
PORT=3000
JWT_SECRET=your-secret-key
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=5432
DB_USER=postgres
DB_PASSWORD=password
DB_NAME=myapp
  1. Run the development server:
npm run dev
  1. Build the project:
npm run build
  1. Run tests:
npm test

Usage

To use this framework in your project, create a new instance of the App class and register your plugins:

import App from 'ts-node-framework';
import examplePlugin from './plugins/examplePlugin';

const app = new App({
  config: {
    // Your custom configuration
  },
});

app.registerPlugin(examplePlugin);

app.start();

Creating Plugins

To create a new plugin, follow the structure in the plugins/examplePlugin directory. Your plugin should export an object that conforms to the Plugin interface:

import { Plugin } from 'ts-node-framework';

const myPlugin: Plugin = {
  name: 'myPlugin',
  prefix: '/my-plugin',
  register: (app, config, env) => {
    // Plugin implementation
  },
};

export default myPlugin;
